Woo-hoo! Hopefully the DoJ will inflict just that.
But you know, I think they're already in deep trouble.
Their entire business model is predicated on their ability to grow
faster than their competition. And now they have competition that
they can't keep up with, can't squeeze out of the market, can't buy,
can't litigate against, can't intimidate -- the millions of developers
cranking out freeware.
Add to that the growing snowball of end-user applications available
on freeware platforms...Sun...Apple (they're ba-ack)...
They have problems. And what's bad for Microsoft is good for the
entire computing industry, so I couldn't be more delighted. The
sooner we dispose of them, the sooner we can get around to making
some of the progress that they've prevented for the last 15 years.
I wonder how the DoJ would feel if we set up a cheering section
at the trial.
